The Manchester Suicide Bomber - Salman Abedi

​

This is the name of the 22 year old university student that killed 22 people and injured 64 others yesterday when he detonated a suicide bomb. His Libyan parents were refugees from Colonel Gaddafi and he was born in Manchester. The explosion occurred as people were leaving a pop concert in Manchester Arena (North of England). The concert was by an American singer called Ariana Grande and her fan base is predominantly teen and pre-teen girls.

So-called ISIS have claimed he was one of their soldiers. Based on a painstaking look at the intelligence collated so far, the Prime Minister of Great Britain announced this evening that the threat level was raised from severe to critical - the maximum threshold. This means that further terrorist atrocities may be imminent. So, the military will be deployed on the country's streets to strengthen the increased police presence.

This evil young man chose the softest of soft targets and no doubt believed he would be rewarded by admission straight to paradise in heaven according to his reading of the Qur'an.

 

Thoughts and prayers?? Please... I bet that nine out of ten who had written that, never prayed about the victims, and also forgot about them right after they closed their computer or changed channel on tv. This is hypocricy. Guess what, the victims' families don't give a damn about all of the people who sympathise them on the internet! Also, f*ck this Ariana, she's nothing special anyways, and she will probably be in her super deluxe and safe apartment right now.



That event was a highly tragic one. But unfortunately nothing will happen to stop this phenomenon, because it would be politically incorrect. That is western society today.

 

You are wrong Nikolai. I do not think that people are hypocritical as you describe them when such tragic events unfold.

I do not like the so-called humour of this Anthony Jeselnik. First, he is not funny. Secondly, like you, he is just wrong! Smh

 

Well, that's your opinion, and I respect it. Though I won't agree with you. I do think that this is hypocrisy. I don't mean that all the "sympathizers" are laughing behind their screen when writing about thoughts and prayers, but the majority of them just write it to write it. Nothing more. They all going to forget about the victims.

 

Of course, some people are cynical and many are devoid of empathy. I suppose it is your assertion that nine out of ten people are like this I cannot agree with.

 

Nine out of ten are hypocritical, but yes there is a number of people who do feel sorry. But this is mostly about that specific event itself, rather than the victims.

 

Oh just stop your bs, man. You're just making shit up to justify your cyclical attitude towards life. You don't know jack shit about how many people are being hypocritical vs how many are being genuine. Social media and technology as a whole has connected us in a way we've never been connected before. It allows us to feel things/events as being close even though they're far away, and some who are sensitive to this kind of shit know they can do nothing but share their sympathy/empathy in the form of "thoughts and prayers". If I was the family of a victim I would much rather hear people offering their thoughts and prayers instead of the deafening silence you would offer up.

 

Everything I know about you @Lazarus Shuttlesworth, convinces me that you are completely sincere. Nikolai was wrong!
